COMPETENCE TO DEVELOP THE RIGHT SOLUTION FOR YOU
Lawkim was founded in 1961 to develop special purpose motors for hermetic
compressors. Since then, the company carried forward this legacy to be a specialist in the
development of customised solutions. Our admirable range of products and solutions is a
testimony to this. In order to respond to such challenging requirements, we have a separate
Product Development Centre, where a team of 25 qualified engineers works to understand
customer needs and develop appropriate solutions. This team is provided with the latest
designing tools, prototyping facility and an advanced test setup. The most important
advantage of our Product Development Centre is the fast turnaround time. The vast
experience of individual members and a large data bank developed over decades of
experience allow us to quickly develop appropriate solutions which not only save time, but
also substantial costs as well.
Once the prototype is developed and field trials are successful, mass production of such
motors and components in the shortest possible time is possible because of our in-house
facilities like a sophisticated tool room for developing dies and punches. As a result, our
competent solutions have been serving leading companies from different segments
domestically and internationally.

CAPACITY TO DELIVER LARGE VOLUMES – EFFICIENTLY
Lawkim firmly believes in self-reliance, so that we are able to serve our customers
efficiently and cost-effectively. Our plant in India is a large integrated facility for
complete motor manufacturing. It is spread over 60,000 sq.m. and is presently
capable of producing 4 million motors every year. This capacity can be expanded
significantly with the addition of a few machines since the basic infrastructure is
already in place. To ensure higher productivity and streamlined material flow, we
follow a cellular manufacturing system.

COMMITMENT TO SERVE WITH QUALITY IN EVERY ASPECT
At Lawkim, we firmly believe in the principle – ‘Quality at every step, quality in every
aspect’. This way, we ensure minimum in-process rejection and almost zero
customer complaints. It is also reflected in our response and service to customers,
as well as in employee relations. That's why all our stakeholders are happy in being
associated with us.
To ensure the highest quality of end products, we have set up systems to evaluate
quality at every step of manufacturing. The steel coils received are checked to
ensure appropriate magnetic properties using latest technology testing machines.
Stampings are routinely checked for consistent dimensions. Every wound stator is
checked for insulation strength and winding consistency. Once the motor gets
assembled, each and every motor is tested to ensure its performance and
correctness of all parameters. Using this step-by-step quality check, highest quality
and reliability of the end product is completely assured. Stitched stack punching

products of high quality, but is also evident in the
service response to our customers. Be it developing
a new product, updating an order status or solving
field problems if they occur, our team of experts
responds with great enthusiasm and speed. It is the
very reason our customers are with us for decades
together.

EVERYONE AT LAWKIM IS INSPIRED TO INNOVATE
At Lawkim, we encourage each team member to think differently.
For this, training and workshops are regularly conducted with the
help of outside experts. This inspires people to think of new ways
of doing things. It gets reflected in our products, processes,
manufacturing techniques or simply a great new idea.
As a result of this, we are able to develop new products such as
BLDC motors, single phase flameproof motors for petrol pumps,
IE3 motors and several other products. Unique software programs
have been developed by Lawkim engineers for designing high
efficiency induction motors with optimum material content and
designing and printing of the complete winding tool set from slot
insulation to finish forming. Cellular manufacturing techniques
developed by our engineers are used to optimise process and
shop efficiency.
Lawkim's novel products such as a bicycle and a cycle rickshaw
made from bamboo have also won awards. Our Automated
Guided Vehicle (AGV) is another innovative achievement, which
has been developed in-house at half the cost.

Naoroji Godrej Center for Plant Research (NGCPR)
NGCPR is first of its kind research organization in India set up
in 1991 by Vijay Crishna, Executive Director. The activity is
dedicated to the memory of Late Shri. Naoroji Godrej with the
vision of nurturing the unique plant life of the Western Ghats
(mountain ranges) through researching its biodiversity and
plant conservation with a special emphasis on medicinal
plants. The center made several significant contributions
towards research and preservation of endangered plant
species. This includes, the discovery of two new taxa, namely
Brachystelma Naoroji & Arysaema Murrayi Var Sonubeniae
and conservation studies on two globally threatened species,
namely Frerea Indica and Abutilon Ranadeli.
However, our motors are at the heart of leading appliances of well-
known brands of refrigerators, air-conditioners, washing
machines and wet grinders. Also, our single phase flameproof
motors are an integral part of some leading brands of fuel
dispensing units. Our custom-built single and three phase motors
form an indispensable part of several industrial machines and
plants.
All these appliances, machines and plants perform flawlessly,
year-after-year in almost all the continents of the world and keep
up the reputation of our customers. Our association with our
customers over decades is a testimony of our globally
acknowledged performance.
